Question for Gooey

[Dusty Hanshaw]

I know this could have been done in private message but since I'm sure I'm not the only one who is wondering I figured I would ask for an update on your prep. Are you feeling good? Driven? How is the strength? I only ask because you have been dieting for a long time so I was curious as to how that has played a roll in your prep for your first assault on the national scene.

Anyhow, look forward to an update and want to wish you well with the rest of your prep.

Since its now public knowledge that I am the lady in Gooey's life that he has mentioned in some of his posts , I will chime in with my thoughts on this. Yes he has been dieting for what seems like forever , actually since March/April. He is handling it better then I ever could. He sure loves food and all kinds but he really enjoys eating clean , so I dont think its been a huge adjustment. he does miss his sweets and being able to go out to eat but has his focus on the show . I have never met a more headstrong person and when he makes up his mind to do something , come hell or highwater its gonna happen. Tunnel vision it is for him. He never misses a workout or a meal and although I am not there when he trains , I know its nothing less then intense and balls to the walls with him. i couldnt be more proud of him for his accomplishments already this year with 2 overalls so far. I know he will put his best foot forward and leave no stone unturned.

[gooey]

thanks sweets...

hey brutha... thanks for askn first and foremost.. yes my better half explains it in a positive way haha... I call it OCD to the max. My training isnt goin bad. I am tryn to ease up on joint stress since I have been pushing it since march. I have no desire for a injury or sickness to hit me while in stride. I tend to push things and not good at takn a breaks. I actually took thurs off yestrday and pushed my training back to sat instead of takn that day off. Right now Im tryn to get ahead and get my BF back down after my lil splurge in between prep. I think my insulin completely ignores muscle tissue when I can eat My strength isnt at its highest but then again im not tryn to win a powerlifting contest. Im tryn to isolate muscle groups best and attack them with weight, volume and angles. Tryn to get that lumpy Dusty upper back, but dont think thatll be possible for me. My weight is @ 245 in the morn, 9 weex today. Just gonna do the best I can, hopefully get some exposure and platform for future shows. I have a lot of offseason building to do though. Just need some time to rest after this show, and then its back to building to try and grab your shoe laces.

Hey Goo,

Glad to hear everything is going well. I know you'll be at your best come showtime and of course you are down playing the level of your physique as always. Keep up the OCD work and you will have a great showing as always and will be winning that thing in no time. We're all pulling for you so keep it up and give us some updates when you have time.

Not to get the thread off track but thanks for asking. My prep is going well and I'm just plugging away. As I've stated many times I have a great support team between my girl, Dante, Alex A, my training partner Ryan (who is also doing the show) so prep is a bit easier for me than most. I'm where I need to be for this stage of the game and am just continuing to drop BF. Weight is about 258lbs and I should be onstage at 250lbs.

Tell your boy to get on here and introduce himself. I hope his prep is going well and look forward to meeting him at the show. It should be a lot of fun.

I gotta stand nex to some amazing physiques, which is where I wanna be but dont know if yet ready to stand nex to them. Im gonna use this show to platform me (hopefully) onto the national level and get some exposure. From there we shall see.... havent taken any pics of lately cuz I dont feel Im at a point to do so, u know how it goes u look in the mirror and u see fat, small, and flat. Ill just keep plugging and chugging which is easy for me since I frikn love routine. Im just blessed to have a team behind me. My girl helps out with so much and deals with my impatience and self absorbness during these times. Great trainer and, training partner who will be competing nex year and good support system and sponsors. BBing can be very selfish but it takes a team to do well.

[Dusty Hanshaw]

Just keep doing your thing Goo. I wouldn't even post pics until you are 99% ready but keep us updated on your progress. You will do awesome and IMO have had a national level physique for years.

Also congrats on finding such a great girl to help along the way. It's the most unfair advantage any athlete could have. I know from experience.

Ive done everything on my own before I met her and I cant really tell you how I managed hahah. Any woman that puts up with contest prep for 3 frikn shows basically all back to back is a good one. Never had a personal Costco shopper Ill post some pics when I get closer to where I wanna be. I wont be competing at frikn 250 though holy poo!!! I dont know how i will fair against guys lke liberatore, albisi, and other great competitors that have amazing physiques and conditioning to match. But I will never find out till I stand next to some of them. I got a lot of work ahead of me but we shall see... just cant wait to get back to the putn on tissue part of it hahaha....
